Moody becomes the latest in a lengthy list of Australian coaches to be handed a contract for the new 100-ball competition, which will begin in 2020.

“Anything that is new and innovative has an automatic appeal,” Moody said, upon the announcement. “From a coaching perspective, it presents new challenges to test yourself against in a world-class environment. To be a part of the early stages of a tournament where you have the opportunity to set the tone around what the 100-ball format will look like is a unique opportunity.”

Greenway, a five-time Ashes winner who won both the Women’s Cricket World Cup and Women’s World T20 with England in 2009, has previously coached Kent Women.

The Hundred’s managing director, Sanjay Patel, welcomed the duo’s inclusion: “I am thrilled to welcome two more exciting coaches to The Hundred. Lydia is another up-and-coming English coach while Tom completes the massively exciting men’s head coach list. It is a line-up bursting with quality coaches who have won white-ball tournaments across the world.”
